Your data is not just data, it's your family photos, your financial documents, your music - your life. You know you should back it up, but many of you don't. We understand. We've talked to lots of people and we've heard the reasons why people don't back up - there's no time; it's a pain; their data's not organized; they don't know how. Using what we've learned, we developed easy, automatic backup software we hope you'll really use because we understand the importance of your data.

It's easy.

You're up and running in a few simple steps. Once you set it up, you can forget it because the rest is automatic.

It finds your data.

A unique visual interface lets you see the WD drives connected toyour computer.

As your backup is running the category gauges will change color showing you the backup as it happens.

When finished, you'll see a status screen and information about your backup. You only have to do this once. After the first backup, your files will be backed up automatically every time you change or add a file.

WD SmartWare is always watching your computer, so when you change a file and save it, create new files, add new pictures, movies, or songs, WD SmartWare will instantly back them up.

It's easy to bring back lost files.
